Aaron Pryor vs. Floyd Mayweather Jr. at 140

[Sweet Pea 50]

Calm down, fellas, I was just funnin.
And The Hawk would give Floyd HELL. But I see Mayweather pulling out a hard fought SD.

because there's no such thing as videos right?

if i say joe louis was great am i lying to myself because i never saw him live and have to watch videos?

don't lie to yourself.

floyd gets ****ed up in this fight.

Joe Louis is a bad example there is very little footage of him as with most fighters before the 70's. 70's and later you can usually get some decent films on most guys, but before that you get what you get and the quality usually is terrible.

I don't even see that. Hawk would be too predictable for Floyd. Pryor ALWAYS left himself open...Floyd would bust him up. Fighters like Pryor are too easy for Floyd to deal with. So what I saying is I'd like to understand how he'd give Mayweather HELL becuz I've seen some of his fight and I don't see that.

What the **** are you talking about? There's footage out there of guys like Gene Fullmer, Carmen Basilio, Ray Robinson, and dozens of others who fought pre-1970. Film dates back to 1888.

Not very good, you can find stuff but like i said you get what you get. 70's and later you can get a lot more and with a much higher quality

Quality varies but that just depends on the dealer. I've had no problems adjusting to old fight reels, but I've known some who couldn't stand them.

I picked Pryor cause thats who I would bet on if I had to bet my money. Thats the kind of fight where either guy could win. Pryor could out work Floyd and take the decision, Floyd could counter Aaron all night and take the decision. I dont see either guy getting a KO on the other.
Would have been amazing if it could have somehow happened.
I really wish Sugar Ray Robinson had fought Pryor between his first retirement and his fight with Hagler. That would have been INSANE!
